What’s more important, a chance to do something adventurous? Or a chance to hurt yourself?

When is acrobat too dangerous?

My daughter mountain climbs and backpacks alone and parachutes and skis. She loves it and would feel dead without it. My fingernails are bitten to the quick, but her cheeks are rosy and her eyes shine.

I didn't see them before and I don't understand them now. So it's all good. 😊@beautifulsnowstorm

@Mindful When the purpose of life is not to get hurt - physically or emotionally - it stops being life and becomes existence.

Ha ha although true I’m thinking... is existence really that bad? Lol

@Mindful Not like her. I rode rowdy horses and got tossed a lot, but the second story of a building gives me vertigo (a slight exaggeration). I prefer to find a way AROUND the mountain, but I'll never know the glory of looking down from the peak. If somebody put me up there I still wouldn't know the glory - I'd be barfing.
